sour sweet bitter spicy

bbook: Soup Dumplings at Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao: Sounds of clinking, slurping and cell-phone ringing can be heard at this homey two-room Shanghai soup dumpling spot tucked away on a side street. Popular with Flushing teens as in-the-know Manhattanites, the goodness goes beyond the steamy, silky broth in the dumplings made to order by hand in the center kitchen. “I like this place better than Joe’s Shanghai,” says Cruz. “These have better flavors and texture.” Beyond the trendy snack, spicy beef and tripe ($5.95), perfectly plumped pork buns ($5.50), crackly beef pancakes with a sweep of Hoisin sweetness and scallions, done Peking-style (only $3.75) are the secret finds on the menu.
